IT suppliers asked to share their Brexit experience

Contractors in the Software and IT Services sector can do more than merely read about Brexit surveys -- they can now take part in one.

TechMarketView, an IT analysis house, says it wants to know how June’s Brexit vote has affected SITS suppliers, and how it stands to affect them once the UK actually leaves the EU.

So it has posted a 22-question survey for suppliers to complete, potentially anonymously if preferred and with no single question being mandatory. It takes about 10 minutes to fill in.

“Even before the result of the general election, the EU referendum vote had created a great deal of uncertainty for UK software and IT services suppliers,” TechMarketView said.  

The firm’s principal analyst Dale Peters says he therefore wants “as much insight” as possible from SITS suppliers, partly why one section of the survey lets respondents leave any comments they wish about Brexit and its likely impact.

Closed questions include whether suppliers have been affected by 11 different threats that Brexit could potentially pose, and which Brexit-related periods hold the most opportunities.
